Slava Vakarchuk is Ukraine's biggest rock star and one of Europe's most fascinating artists and activists. As frontman of the legendary band Okean Elzy, he has brought the sounds of Ukrainian language and culture to stadiums and concert halls around the world. As a civic activist, he has fought for democracy, transparency, and the rule of law in Ukraine during times of struggle and revolution. And as a soldier in Ukraine's Armed Forces, he has worked tirelessly to defend and inspire his people since the onset of Russia's full-scale war against Ukraine. Join us at 5:00 p.m. on Monday, September 22, in 1050 Jenkins Nanovic Halls for an intimate discussion about the role of art and music in the fight against aggression and about the promise of hope in an increasingly perilous world. All Notre Dame students, faculty, staff, and visiting scholars are invited to this special event coordinated by the Ukrainian Studies Hub. Originally published at nanovic.nd.edu.

By Kimberly BelflowerFresh from its Off-Broadway debut, John Proctor Is the Villain is a razor-sharp, timely play that packs a punch of truth, making it the perfect undertaking for a college campus. A 2025 award season darling, with seven Tony Award nominations, including Best Play, Best Actress in a Play, and Best Direction of a Play, it won the Outer Critics Circle Award for Outstanding New Broadway Play, plus recognition from the Dorian Awards and Drama Desk Awards.Playwright Kimberly Belflower's contemporary story pulls at the parallels to reconsider Arthur Miller's The Crucible. Set in rural Georgia, watch it all unfold through the eyes of a high school class confronting the real-life complexities of identity, gender, and power.Helmed by Sarah Gitenstein, assistant professor for Notre Dame's Department of Film, Television, and Theatre, and directing an all-student cast with wit and honesty, they tackle this of-the-moment topic to challenge assumptions, spark dialogue, and give voice to those too often left unheard.
